Tunisian Mosaics
Tunisia
has the richest collection of mosaics in the world, covering the Punic to
Muslim periods, with the
Bardo
Museum
housing a thousand or works
Undoubtedly, mosaics are one of the most eloquent artistic expressions
of antiquity. It was in
Tunisia
that this important artistic
expression had its heyday, and Tunisian mosaics surpassed all the mosaics of
other provinces in their richness and finesse, including those of
Rome
and its region. Today,
Tunisia
is home to the richest collection
of mosaics in the world.
The
Bardo
National
Museum
, four kilometres from
Tunis
, holds the major part of this rich
and prestigious collection. Before becoming a museum, this Moorish palace was
the residence of the Beys - the monarchs of
Tunis
. One can still find Mosaics in
Carthage
, Dougga,
Bulla Regia and the
Sousse
Museum
.
The mosaics date from the third and the fourth centuries of the
Christian era during which artisans refined their techniques and mastered the
use of molten glass, which enabled them to obtain the colours that stones
could not provide. Such progress allowed them to reach the splendour still
preserved in their work today.
The pictures are of varying sizes - sometimes huge – presenting a
variety of themes, such as hunting, fishing, fighting, mythology, scenes of
everyday life, farming, the harvests abundance, diversity of produce such as
fish and fruit, religious rites, banquets, secular ceremonies, religious
processions, feasts, dances and family life. The portrait of Virgil located
in the
Sousse
Museum
, is unique. The Triumph of Neptune
is one of the greatest mosaics to be found.
